[Konchok]

Declined Western (UWO) just now.

[hector549]

I've declined funded MA offers at Western Michigan University and the University of Houston.

[hector549]

I've just declined a funded offer from Georgia State.

[eeeeeeeeeeeee]

Declined NYU.

[Dialectica]

Just curious (now that I know I'm in limbo with Riverside and Austin): anyone with offers/waitlists at either Riverside or Austin plan on declining?

[Konchok]

Declined UMass (funded) and will be removing myself from the waitlist at CEU.

Declined an offer to Duquesne. Good luck!  

(I also removed myself from the wait lists at BU and TAMU)

Thank you @goldenstardust11!  

On a related note- I received an offer from DePaul today and will likely be taking myself off the waitlist at Duquesne and Marquette within the next couple of days. I hope this helps someone!

[Tecumseh Valley]

Declined a funded offer from Oregon (PhD). 

[Glasperlenspieler]

Declined Riverside. Sorry it took so long, but it was a difficult decision to make. The program seems really great, especially if you're into German philosophy and/or agency, free will, moral psychology. PM if you have questions.

Hope that helps someone! Maybe it'll be you @Dialectica but I think we have different AOIs.

I declined a waitlist offer from UPenn a few days ago (new to posting on here / learning to navigate how to post things where they matter). Not too exciting, but I hope it helps someone!

[Dialectica]

So exciting seeing all the big declinations reported in the facebook group! I wish more were posted here!

[TruthInFiction]

Declined UNC and Arizona.

[Naruto]

Declined a funded offer from Georgetown. I received the email about funding right when I was about to decline my offer.

Congrats on getting funding! And thanks for turning it down! I know someone on their waitlist who may benefit from this!

Declined offers to Indiana HPS, BU, and Western.  I'm going to Calgary and I'm very excited.  It was an incredibly hard decision particularly since I'm turning down schools that are higher ranked than the one I'll attend.

[anonmaly]

Very tough decision, but I just declined my wait list position at Mizzou.

Congrats! That sounds like a really hard decision.

Isn't it hard to let go of offers? Geeze.

Best of luck to your friend! Feel free to message me if they have questions about the program. I learned a lot about the program at the open house!

Hi! I'm on the MU's wait list too and I do hope to attend their program. Could you please let me know your position on the wait list if possible? It will be extremely helpful to me to figure out the chance of being admitted. Thank you!

Also to others who are sitting on MU''s offer and won't go, plz kindly turn it down and reply to the department asap. Do appreciate for your kindness. 

[Nichi]

Declined Arizona.

In case someone here gets the waitlist offer and is curious, everyone there seemed to be sharp philosophers and kind people, but the fit is better for me at UCR. It was a tough decision.

[Schopenhauerfanboy]

Anybody declining Syracuse? Asking for a friend...

I was told that I was first on the wait list, although I do not know if I was first for my interest or overall. Good luck!
